ABSTRACT

Purpose: This study has been conducted to identify the relationships between perception, knowledge, and healthcare behaviors of particulate matter among Korea Armed Forces Nursing Academy (KAFNA) cadets. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional survey, and 269 KAFNA cadets participated in the study. The questionnaire consisted of 48 questions about perception, knowledge, and healthcare behavior of particulate matter. Data were analyzed by independent t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson’s correlation analysis. Results: The average score of perception of particulate matter was 48.04±7.79 out of 75, knowledge of particulate matter 5.58±1.32 out of 10, and healthcare behaviors of particulate matter 77.39±10.60 out of 115. There was significantly positive correlation between perception and healthcare behaviors on particulate matter (r=.53, p<.001). Conclusion: Based on the study results, the program for enhancing perception on particulate matter is needed to improve the healthcare behaviors among KAFNA cadets. The result of this study is expected to be used as a evidence for developing health promotion education or programs for cadets and particulate matter related policies in the future.
